Dabney ’14 Directs ‘She Is the Narrative’ This May

“She Is the Narrative” gives voice to the voiceless through history and present times. Directed by Desirée Dabney ’14 (Bachelor of Fine Arts in Acting), “She Is the Narrative” explores historical events, personal experiences and finding your voice when you are voiceless due to the color of your skin. This exploration leads an audience to discover, think and develop actions; celebrate black history together; cry, laugh, reflect, and rejoice.

The performance is scheduled for Wednesday, May 1, from 7-9:30 p.m. in Glaize Studio Theatre (Ruebush Hall) and will be followed by a Q&A with the artists. This event is free and open to the public; no tickets are required. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. This event is sponsored by Shenandoah University’s Black History Month committee. Questions? Contact Dahlia Ashford at dashford@su.edu.

Along with serving as head of musical theatre at VCU, Dabney is a professional actor, singer, director, teacher and executive director of Theatre Diva Productions in Richmond, Virginia.
